I used debug.exe just a few semesters ago, but I don't remember it well. If you have an executable that you have already assembled, then check out gdb...(GNU debugger). It is a staple for any linux programmer, in fact, if you go on to higher level programs like c or c++ you can use if for those also. There are also quite a few GUI frontends to make it easier to use. http://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/ On 7/1/06, Rodrigo Lazo wrote: > > Michael Sullivan writes: > > > On Sat, 2006-07-01 at 19:12 -0500, Rodrigo Lazo wrote: > >> Hi everybody, > >> > >> sorry for the OT.
